we had the windows box printing about 6 months ago but for some reason it isn't doing so any longer.
Why is this? The smbtree <1> has the print server in it showing the printer as being shared. It also has the windows box with the print driver showing as shared. I don't know if this would matter but I changed the account name. hmmmm.... it seems to have mattered seeing as how I can't print anymore!
